I think the problem is that a lot of people (especially in America) don’t really like what most DJs play. They just happen to like the fact that wherever there’s a DJ there is usually someone of the opposite/same sex that they can get close to. Taking drugs “loosens” them up to be more open and has a symbiotic relationship with the music. Some people take the drug part way to far wether it be Alcohol or anything else. These are the people getting on the news. You never see a news report about a 10,000 people going to a festival and everyone had a great time. That would be boring. This report is the best one I have ever seen about any Dance Music event done by the general media.

Even that one still has some focus on the few people that go to those events looking to get high. Thankfully the reporter throws in at the end that by and large it’s all about the music. Which is my mantra. No matter what people tell me. I have mothers tell me I’m corrupting the youth of america when it gets out that I DJ. I generally only do house parties and the occasional small show. But people are set in their ways and don’t want to listen to someone with an opinion that differs from there own. I love music, all kinds of music. If it wasn’t for the music I don’t know where I’d be today. I know it wouldn’t be where I am now and that would suck.
